IBM Thinkpad - X window system?


Hello

I have installed Debian on my IBM Thinkpad 600, and I have a problem with the X window system.

When the X window system is not running and screen expansion is on, everything looks fine. When X window system is running, the graphics looks awful, and edges on the letters and numbers are not sharp and nice, if I then change screen expansion to off, everything looks great, but then the screen is very small.

Is there a way, where screen expansion can be on, but the graphics also looks nice?
